Baekje Dynasty

While it was small, Baekje enjoyed some power due to its ties to China. During the Chinese Three Kingdoms period, Baekje actively supported Shu through favorable trade. As a result, Baekje made an enemy of Wei. Cao Cao had plans for a full invasion of Baekje, but ultimately could not spare the men, instead sending mercenaries to disrupt the trade routes. Baekje enjoyed similar trade relationships with later Chinese dynasties.
